Genius Girlfriend 2 - The Story of a New Name
The second part of the novel tetralogy that has captivated readers around the world
The story of the new name depicts the youth of both heroines and focuses on the discovery of their own sexuality, of pleasure and pain, that are associated with it, and the plight of the "geniuses", free-spirited and love-starved girls in the world of Neapolitan men, for whom to love is above all to possess.
? This theme resonates with the historical background of the story, with the fabulous '60s, when Italy finally wakes up to life after years of fascism and war, economically developing, promotes trade and business, but also unscrupulous predation, recognizes fun and material prosperity (or at least the illusion of it). The sexual revolution is coming, but also student and worker unrest, the clashes between the right and the left are escalating, the camorrist Solares are becoming the unlimited rulers of the peripheral neighbourhood, but their ambitions go far beyond its borders...
And Elena and Lila experience a fateful hot summer on Ischia, which brings emotion, passion and a lot of pain into both their lives that they will only be able to deal with through the written word. Writing as therapy, as a search for order, as a way of both animating and mortifying reality, is given more and more space in their story and fate, and the honest account of female friendship once again engages the reader with its depth and intensity.
